[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]What is the purpose of a magnet school?[/quote] The purpose of a [b]magnet[/b] school is to [b]attract[/b] white students to schools full of black students, in order to [i]desegregate[/i] the school district, [i]increase political power for gaining resources for that school[/i] and to [i]game the "schoolwide" performance metrics[/i] to show "equity". A "[b]gifted program[/b]" is no the same as a "[b]magnet school[/b]"[/quote] Considering that two of the schools have fewer Black than white students, your definition doesn’t really work.[/quote]
